Consistency not variety, repetitive diets and weekend high-calorie meals help weight loss, study finds
A study of overweight and obese adults found that keeping daily calorie intake steady and repeating similar meals was linked to greater weight loss. Researchers analysed meal logs and weight data from 112 participants using a mobile app and found larger losses when day-to-day calorie swings were smaller. Participants who repeated more than half of weekly foods lost more weight on average. Those eating more on weekends also tended to lose more.
